About the game
Paw Paw Paw was a peaceful and prosperous kingdom. Until one day, when the King had decided to enforce everyone to wear pants. We are the resistance. We are the Antipants.

The value story
64 discounts in the 6 years on record, a median of 90 percent off across all of them, roughly 5 weeks apart. Today's $0.89 at 91 percent off matches the lowest price in the record.
It is less well reviewed than 92 percent of its genre. On the same math Guacamelee! 2 ($4.99, scores 83) and Warhammer 40,000: Shootas, Blood & Teef ($19.99, scores 65) are the better buys, and they are the games it most resembles.

So you end up just rolling around and hitting them... but you can't stunlock them either, not really, so you just pray they die before you do. You can level up to increase your damage... by beating the same level over and...
so i just completed the game with my nephew on easy mode. game's difficulty is in a kind of weird place. easy mode is easy for like 80% of the game. but at castle areas, the difficulty got like a 200% spike and we just couldnt clear it without resorting to some sort of cheese. in my case, i just started a ranger and just shoot from afar and basically just take my time. if you have both melee characters, its honestly...
